Learn the best KAYO Molly Lineups on Lotus Post-Plant in Valorant!
KAYO’s molly is one of the quirkiest molly abilities in VALORANT because it inflicts damage over time. While most molly abilities, such as Brimstone’s Incendiary, Viper’s Snake Bite, and Killjoy’s Nanoswarm, drain HP over a few seconds, KAYO’s molly deals damage through four big bursts, allowing it to deal bigger damage per tick.
However, KAYO’s molly comes with a small caveat – the ability only deals maximum damage when enemies stand directly above the center of the molly radius. This means players must pay extra attention to how they use the molly, especially in post-plant lineups.
In this quick guide, we have lined up some of the best KAYO molly lineups you can use post-plant on Lotus.
Lotus A-site KAYO Molly Lineups
A-site Default is by far the most common Spike plant spot on Lotus A-site, and for a good reason – A-site Default forces the Defending team to push toward the bombsite from A-Top or A-Drop to access the Spike post-plant. But since the Attacking team likely has control of A-Tree and A-Stairs, the Defending team is naturally at a disadvantage post-plant in terms of angles.
Use the lineups featured below to ensure you can help delay the Spike defuse and punish Spike defusers post-plant for Spike plants at A-Default.

Lotus B-site KAYO Molly Lineups
There aren’t many options for post-plant lineups for B-site on Lotus since B-site’s layout only allows for lineups that can make it through the small hole in the roof. This means that most post-plant lineups are only really for the B-Default area.
You can easily line up post-plant KAYO mollies from Attacker Spawn or B-Main to defend the Spike post-plant.
Lotus B-Default Post-plant Molly Lineup
